Must Have for miniatures
This is the must-have glue for model building and kitbashing miniatures. It sticks to just about every substrate, and with plastics it actually slightly dissolves the two surfaces you are joining, forming a very strong bond, but unlike superglue, it doesn’t set instantly, allowing you time to position it exactly like you want it, and also remove any glue that squeezes out of the join. The long, thin nozzle allows you to get a precise amount of glue into hard-to-reach areas, and there is a needle-like wire inside that prevents any glue blocking up and drying in the tube. The shape of the bottle also prevents it from rolling away and making a mess which is quite clever, and very handy.

I buy this glue for building warhammer minitures and it is the best glue that i have used to stick the plastic together. There are two things what i dont like about the glue but thats more in the design of the bottle and needle rather than the actual glue. the needle gets stuck in the blue lid a lot and you have to use tweezers to pull it out again and also that the needle clugs up but heating it with a flame does unclog it.

Excellent plastic model glue
This adhesive is ideal for model makers working with plastic. The adhesive is very thin so does not leave that sticky mess found with other glues. It has a needle thin applicator to allow very precise targeting of where to apply the glue. The design of the bottle means you do not have to squeeze which gives much more control and avoids ruining models due to applying too much glue.

Super easy to use
Unlike old school model making glue, this allows you to micro control the amount dispensed. Brilliant.
If it does get blocked, it's easily undone, by warming up the needle nozzle.
Good value too!

Good overall performance.
I have been modelling for a number of years and this product by Revell is excellent.
The needle offers accurate glue placement on small or intricate parts, it does have a tendency to block..but I solve this with a quick poke with some thin wire.
It's long lasting too, I've had breaks from modelling that have lasted years, and when retrieved from the toolbox the glue is always ready to go.

This product was easy to use.
when applying this glue to some of the parts of the plastic kit that were painted prior to assembly (specially black painted items) the glue seemed to dissolve the Acrylic paint making the drying time longer than would have been expected. In some incidences the parts glued together prior to assembly still had not bonded after 2 days?

Useful
Effective quick drying glue. Metal tube can become blocked when not in use resulting in nothing at all to a flood of glue instantly which is a bit annoying, best test on kitchen towel first. To clear blockage, remove metal pin and heat this, blockage will pop out. Replace pin and away you go.

Great for plastics!
This product is by far the best adhesive for plastics, not so strong that it seriously melts the plastic if excess leaks and not so weak that it doesnt stick parts together! Really quite strong and sets in seconds. Cant recommend it enough
